Solemn Mass 

Solemn Mass was the most common before 1962. The Priest would be assisted by a Deacon and Subdeacon. Including a MC, Thurifer, two Acolytes, and some servers to carry torches at the Canon. All parts are sung and chanted. The Subdeacon reads the Epistle, while the Deacon chants the Gospel. The Priest sings the rest of the Mass.

Sung Mass 

There are two types of sung Mass. Two servers can assist the Priest (as at Low Mass) without incense, but this time with music and chanting. The second version, is with the Priest assisted by a MC (Master of Ceremonies), a Thurifer and two Acolytes. The Priest chants the Asperges, Epistle, Gospel etc.
There was no Deacon to assist the Priest, so they had to have a sung Mass with Incense
